Unless you’ve been living under a rock, you’ve probably noticed some news about web security and personal data privacy floating around. With everything from hackers trying to crack into your financial data to internet service providers selling your information to advertisers, going online is becoming a bit of a fright fest. But new tools to help you fight for your privacy are emerging, and VPNs, or Virtual Private Networks, are a must-have for protecting yourself online. There are a lot of VPN options out there, but the most effective one by a mile is NordVPN.

VPNs create an encrypted tunnel between you and the VPN’s server (instead of your internet service provider’s server), and all of your web traffic is routed through that tunnel. Once you’re safely surfing in the tunnel, your location and browsing activity becomes completely invisible. No one, including people on the same network or your ISP, can see what you’re up to or use your information for nefarious purposes. All VPN services use this technology, but NordVPN has additional measures in place that make it the last VPN you’ll ever need.

NordVPN’s service has earned top reviews from PC Mag, including a rarely given five-star rating. Nord gives you the option to use their unique double VPN, so if someone hacks into the VPN’s first layer you’ll still be protected by a second fortress. The company has a strong commitment to customer privacy and a strict no logging policy, meaning that none of the pages you visit online will be recorded in NordVPN’s system. Their internet and app kill switches immediately log you out of browsers or applications if your server connection is disrupted, so you won’t be at risk for a single moment.

On top of these standout benefits, NordVPN has a malware detector and ad blocker, so it’s like having anti-virus software on top of encrypted online privacy. As an added bonus, you can use the VPN on up to six devices simultaneously, so you’re protected on your laptop, smartphone, tablet and whatever else you use to get your internet on. And with NordVPN’s unmatched number of servers (over 3,000 across the globe), you can maintain heightened web privacy well traveling, or mask your IP address to access restricted content — a program that’s part of an expensive cable package in the U.S. might be free to watch if you log in from another country.
